` Leners Patent No. 89,662, mama/y 4,1869.

IMPROVEMENT nr PII-xmas.`

The Schedule referred to these Illetten Patent and making part of the sama.

To all Ivhomit ma/y concern:

Be it known that I, D. P. HENRY, of Windsoig'in' 'terns, and for other purposes, and it consists in the construction and arrangement of parts, as will behereinafter more fully described.

Figure 1 is a side elevatiougof the pump.

Figure 2"is a sectional elevation through the line a: z, of iig. 1.

' Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts. y

A represents the barrel of the pump, which is submerged, and receives the water at the lower end, as seen at B.

C is 'the valve-chamber.

D is the plunger.

E is the pump-tube which is attached to the barrel.

F is a stop-valve inthe tube.

G represents the casing, orhead ofthe pump, within which the gearing is operated.A

The upper portion of the tube E is solid, and the gearing-wheel j; and pinion g, are attached thereto by suitable shafts, as'seen in the drawing.

The shaft of the wheel fis a crank-shaft.

h is the crank by which the pump is operated.

I is the plunger-rod.

This rod is attached to a crank J, on the shat'of the pinion g.

It will be seenthat by turning the crank h, a rapid motion will be given to the pinion-shaft and to the plunger. I

' The water is discharged from the tube through the spout K.

L indicates the surface of the water, and the pump' is represented in the drawing .as in use in a well.

The advantages of this arrangement are, that the pump works with moreease than any other, and raises water faster.

It is la forcing-pump exclusively, so that an airvalve is not necessary; consequently it is not liable to get out of order.

In going downward, the weightof the plunger and rod is balanced by the rising water, and in rising, the plunger is balanced bythe water flowing-into the barrel under it, so that the pump works nearly as easy when forcing water to a moderate height as when the barrel is empty. A y

I claim as new, land desire to secure. by' Letters Patent- The pump-tube E, so constructed at its upper end above the discharge-spout K,"as to receive between its sides thel gear-wheels f g, and carrying at its lower end the pump-barrel A, in which the solid plunger D `is operated from the crank-sha'. of the gear-wheel g,

by means of the jointed connecting-rod I, all arranged and operating as described, for the purpose specied. v D. P. HENRY.' Witnesses:
